Korede Bello, the chart-topping sensation known for his infectious hits, is pulling out all the stops for his birthday celebration. Born on a leap year, Korede Bello is making this milestone count with a double musical treat: the release of two captivating singles Minding My Business ft. Don Jazzy and Happy Birthday To Me.
Minding My Business is a sonic expression of self-confidence, self-empowerment, and joy. Speaking on uniting with his erstwhile Producer and record label boss, Bello said “Working with Don Jazzy is always exciting. While making the album project, I knew I wanted to make a joyful song with Jazzy. So before we started making the song, I told him what type of song I’d like us to make, and he responded that joy was his favorite genre too. Naturally, we’re both joyful people, so making the song was just us being authentically ourselves. His creative energy can be felt on the beats of Minding My Business. Don J and I like to make music that connects with people and connects people with people.” Don Jazzy, equally thrilled about the collaboration, shares, “Korede is a phenomenal artist, and it’s always a pleasure collaborating with him. ‘Minding My Business’ is our story, and we’re sure a lot of people can relate.”
While Happy Birthday To Me breaks away from the traditional “Happy Birthday” tunes. Korede Bello shares “I’ve always heard ‘Happy Birthday to you’ type of songs, but I wanted to create a song that the celebrant can sing to themselves with or without anyone else around. It’s a subtle nod to self-love. Also, the name of the album is KOREDAY, it’s themed around my leap year birthday, so it’s only right that the project’s first track is me singing a happy birthday song to myself. Everything you hear on the song is me.”
